Understanding dogs and applying well-reasoned methods is as much of an art as it is a science. I provide behavioral consultation services and private in-home training. I am experienced with all types of behavioral issues. My passion is working with the most challenging dogs that others may have given up on to bring about positive results. There are numerous methods used to train dogs. Generally speaking there is “tool” based training, “food” based training, and “relationship” based training. Realistically all methods incorporate all three but there can be drastic differences in the approach, application, and effectiveness. The three training methods can use fear, food, or fun. Any of these training methods can achieve results with the right dog and right trainer. But achieving results with harsh methods is unnecessary. Often “tool” and “fear” based trainers use a choke chain, check chain, prong collar, e-collar, or other “correction tools” on dogs. Since none of these “tools” are necessary I advise against using any of them on any dog. THEY ARE NOT NEEDED! Leadership starts by being in control, not fighting for control. This does not mean you need to become a dictator. Dictators are feared, not respected. You are not your dog’s peer, but you should be their best friend. After all you choose them. Even though they are not human, they are still family, so treat your dog like a family member, not a competitor. How do you know when you are becoming the leader you should be? Your dog will be responsible to you, not for you, or indifferent to you, and the vast majority of the time your dog will be cooperating with you, not just submitting.
